Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| Increase in the phase angle in the bioelectrical impedance measurement (BIA measurement) by 20% after 12 weeks | — |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame |
|---|---|
| - Increase in hand strength - Improvement of the 6 min walking test - Biochemical parameters (albumin, total protein) - Less frequent hospital stays during the waiting period and shorter hospitilation during transplantation - Improvement in quality of life and nutritional status (PG-SGA score) - Measurement of the skeletal muscle index in the context of radiological tomography to assess sarcopenia over the course - lower mortality | — |
